Genes affected
QARS1 (HGNC:9751): (glutaminyl-tRNA synthetase 1) Aminoacyl-tRNA synthetases catalyze the aminoacylation of tRNA by their cognate amino acid. Because of their central role in linking amino acids with nucleotide triplets contained in tRNAs, aminoacyl-tRNA synthetases are thought to be among the first proteins that appeared in evolution. In metazoans, 9 aminoacyl-tRNA synthetases specific for glutamine (gln), glutamic acid (glu), and 7 other amino acids are associated within a multienzyme complex. Although present in eukaryotes, glutaminyl-tRNA synthetase (QARS) is absent from many prokaryotes, mitochondria, and chloroplasts, in which Gln-tRNA(Gln) is formed by transamidation of the misacylated Glu-tRNA(Gln). Glutaminyl-tRNA synthetase belongs to the class-I aminoacyl-tRNA synthetase family. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants. [provided by RefSeq, Jan 2013]

ACMG classification

Classification was made for transcript

Our verdict: Uncertain_significance. The variant received 0 ACMG points.

PP5
Variant 3-49100222-G-A is Pathogenic according to our data. Variant chr3-49100222-G-A is described in ClinVar as Conflicting_classifications_of_pathogenicity. ClinVar VariationId is 598952.
BS1
Variant frequency is greater than expected in population eas. GnomAdExome4 allele frequency = 0.0000554 (81/1461886) while in subpopulation EAS AF = 0.000403 (16/39700). AF 95% confidence interval is 0.000252. There are 0 homozygotes in GnomAdExome4. There are 31 alleles in the male GnomAdExome4 subpopulation. Median coverage is 35. This position passed quality control check. Existence of Clinvar submissions makes me limit the strength of this signal to Supporting
